Abstract :
This paper describes integrated methods of diagnosing and forecasting aviation weather hazards using fuzzy logic techniques, and the current status of operational transition of these revolutionary new products. It also describes methods of getting the most current weather information to the end user, including data link and real-time display in the cockpit. Since these new products are four-dimensional, unique display concepts for the end user are covered
